Day 2 Handout WR152: Family Snaps and Stories West and Hirsch Reading This official handout Christening photograph released by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex shows Britain's Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex (centre left), and his wife Meghan, Duchess of Sussex holding their baby son, Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor flanked by (L-R) Britain's Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, Britain's Prince Charles, Prince of Wales, Ms Doria Ragland, Lady Jane Fellowes, Lady Sarah McCorquodale, Britain's Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, and Britain's Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge in the Green Drawing Room at Windsor Castle, west of London on July 6, 2019. Chris Allerton—AFP/Getty Images Additional Notes on the Rhetorical Context: A Christening is a baptismal ceremony that initiates a person (in this case an infant) into the Christian church. Typically, godparents are present at the ceremony and designated to be spiritual guides to the christened one. The godparents – Mark Dyer, an officer of Prince Charles’ household and close caregiver to Prince Harry, and Tiggy Pettifer, Prince Harry’s former nanny – are not present. Lady Jane and Lady Sarah are sisters of the former Princess Diana Spencer, the deceased mother of Prince Harry and Prince William. Questions to discuss. Who do you think is the audience for this portrait? What do you think is its purpose? Our reading should inform our ideas: Drawing on Shearer West’s definitions, is this photograph dynastic or interpersonal (or both)? Hirsch claims that “[family] photography celebrates the details while it obscures ironies, ambiguities, and contradictions” (45). Why should the godparents be absent from this Christening photograph? .

  • Diana, Princess of Wales
    Diana, Princess of Wales The Lady Diana Frances Spencer (Diana Frances Mountbatten- Windsor, née Spencer) (1 July 1961–31 August 1997) was the first wife of Charles, Prince of Wales. From her marriage in 1981 to her divorce in 1996 she was styled Her Royal Highness The Princess of Wales. After her divorce in 1996, Diana ceased to be a Royal Highness and The Princess of Wales and instead was styled Diana, Princess of Wales. She was often called Princess Diana by the media and the public, but this was incorrect both during and after her marriage, as she was only ever a Princess by marriage, not by birth.' An iconic presence on the world- stage, Diana, Princess of Wales was noted for her pioneering charity work. Yet her philanthropic endeavours were overshadowed by her scandal-plagued marriage to Prince Charles. Her bitter accusations via friends and biographers of adultery, mental cruelty and emotional distress visited upon her riveted the world for much of the 1990s, spawning books, magazine articles and television movies. From the time of her engagement to the Prince of Wales in 1981 until her death in a car accident in 1997, the Princess was arguably the most famous woman in the world, the pre-eminent female celebrity of her generation: a fashion icon, an image of feminine beauty, admired and emulated for her high-profile involvement in AIDS issues and the international campaign against landmines. During her lifetime, she was often referred to as the most photographed person in the world. To her admirers, The Princess of Wales was a role model — after her death, there were even calls for her to be nominated for sainthood — while her detractors saw her life as a cautionary tale of how an obsession with publicity can ultimately destroy an individual.

  • Queen's Call to Arms! | Sunshine Coast Daily
    10/2/2020 YOUR STORY: Queen's Call to Arms! | Sunshine Coast Daily YOUR STORY: Queen's Call to Arms! by GEORGE_HELON 2 14th Sep 2020 10:37 AM Just before his eldest daughter Catherine Middleton married His Royal Highness Prince William, the future Duke of Cambridge on 29 April 2011 in Westminster Abbey, Michael Middleton was granted a coat of arms by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II as a personal gift. On 25 May 2018 Meghan Markle, now the Duchess of Sussex was granted a coat of arms in her own right by the Queen; but in Meghan's case - and partly because of her unruly clan - the privilege extended neither to her father, nor her family. By Letters Patent issued under Crown authority, I GEORGE WILLIAM HELON Esquire of Toowoomba have just been granted a coat of arms, crest, badge and the exemplification of a standard by Her Majesty's College of Arms in London (College Reference: Grants 23/2019). Her Majesty the Queen is the 'Fount of Honour' from whom all titles, grants of arms, orders of chivalry and honours are conferred; they are Our Sovereign's gift and prerogative. Under English heraldic law, a coat of arms and armorial ensigns can be granted to persons of eminence or good standing in national or local life and for exceptional service to society at large. A grant of arms confers upon a person and his or her legitimate descendants the exclusive right to bear a particular coat of arms or armorial bearings in perpetuity. Contrary to what some may have read on the internet and believe, there is no such thing as a coat of arms for a particular surname; coats of arms belong to specific individuals, their families and descendants.

  • Meghan and Harry That They Would Have to Accept What Was on Offer and Not Demand What Was Not
    Contents Title Page Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 4 Chapter 5 Chapter 6 Chapter 7 Chapter 8 Chapter 9 Chapter 10 Chapter 11 Chapter 12 Photo Section Copyright CHAPTER 1 On May 19th 2018, when Meghan Markle stepped out of the antique Rolls Royce conveying her and her mother Doria Ragland from the former Astor stately home Cliveden to St. George’s Chapel, Windsor, where she was due to be married at 12 noon, she was a veritable vision of loveliness. At that moment, one of the biggest names of the age was born. As the actress ascended the steps of St. George’s Chapel, its interior and exterior gorgeously decorated in the most lavish and tasteful spring flowers, she was a picture of demure and fetching modesty, stylish elegance, transparent joyousness, and radiant beauty. The simplicity of her white silk wedding dress, designed by Clare Waight Keller of Givenchy, with its bateau neckline, three-quarter length sleeves, and stark, unadorned but stunningly simple bodice and skirt, coupled with the extravagant veil, five metres long and three metres wide, heavily embroidered with two of her favourite flowers (wintersweet and California poppy, as well as the fifty three native flowers of the various Commonwealth countries, and symbolic crops of wheat, and a piece of the blue dress that the bride had worn on her first date with the groom), gave out a powerful message. All bridal gowns make statements. Diana, Princess of Wales, according to her friend Carolyn Pride, used hers to announce to the world, ‘Here I am.

  • On June 2, 1953, Queen Elizabeth II Was Crowned
    A Masonic Minute “To the Queen and the Craft” On June 2, 1953, Queen Elizabeth II was crowned “By the grace of God of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and of her other realms and territories Queen, Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith “ with great pomp and ceremony in Westminster Abbey. ‘Her other realms’ includes Canada. It may justly be said that Her Majesty comes from a Masonic family. Her husband, Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, was initiated in 1952, the year of her accession to the throne. Her father, King George VI was an active Freemason. As Prince Albert, Duke of York, he was initiated in 1919, Her great-grandfather, Albert Edward, Prince of Wales, son of Victoria and Albert, was initiated in Sweden in 1868, and served as Grand Master in England from 1874 until his accession as King Edward VII in 1901. Her grandfather, King George V, was not a Freemason, but three of his sons were: Edward, Prince of Wales, later King Edward VIII, Albert, Duke of York, later King George VI, and George, Duke of Kent. The Queen’s first cousin, H.R.H. Prince Edward, Duke of Kent, is the Grand Master of the United Grand Lodge of England, serving in that office since 1967. The articles of union which joined the rival Grand Lodges, the Moderns and the Ancients in 1813 were signed by two Royal brothers, the Duke of Sussex and Prince Edward, the Duke of Kent as Grand Masters of the respective Grand Lodges The first member of the British royal family to be initiated in England was Frederick Lewis, Prince of Wales, in 1737.
